An analytics enthusiast who aims to create successful data teams via a modern & lean tech stack, I started my career in publishing before moving into digital media & the Berlin startup.
Currently and for the past 3 years, I have been with Onefootball, the world’s biggest soccer stats & news platform and home to more than 10 million monthly users. While providing insights for business-critical decision-making, I lead a team powered by an environment of open feedback, trust and individual development.
